The confectionery ingredients market in Estonia is experiencing growth driven by the increasing demand for high-quality, natural, and innovative ingredients used in the production of candies, chocolates, and other confectionery items. With a rising consumer preference for healthier and cleaner-label products, manufacturers are incorporating organic, gluten-free, and low-sugar ingredients into their offerings.
